Was thrilled to see this today...knew that it was coming from some discussion on here, but very cool to read the full story! Can't wait to play this layout in real life!

Just stunning... so well done and came in my top 50 courses for 2K (see Architecture). Such a good job.

Just received the email from Sand Valley as well. Pretty crazy seeing renderings from our game being used to advertise a real golf course. thelido.com/

We'll have to arrange a TGC outing in Spring 2023 at Sand Valley. Rounds 1 and 2 will be on the game and 3 and 4 will be irl. That Would make for a very turbulent and entertaining leaderboard.

I'm totally in...I live within 2.5 hours of Sand Valley and have yet to get up there. An outing would give me the perfect reason to finally experience it!

I've just noticed that some of the images shown in the Fried Egg article and on the TheLido.com are being labeled as from the "Wisconsin Lido" digital renderings...does that mean that a "Wisconsin Lido" version of the course will be published in 2K21 anytime soon?
Pretty, pretty please?!?!

Pretty, pretty please?!?! I didn't want to publish it before their marketing release. I would just have to install back tees again. Here is how it looks though. Even though it's different than the original site, I really like the look of it. The original was cool, but it also had telephone poles, housing, a road through the middle, visible parking lots, etc. This setting will be very open and different in its own way. For this one, the concept is that the beach is still intact to the right, and instead of ocean, there are waves of sand with enough long grass to make it a bad outcome if you slice it all the way over. But the beach area would probably be groomed daily as if the tide smoothed it out.

The question here is: if your work on this platform helps inform their design, marketing, and how they build it, will they then send a cease-and-desist after it's real and ban us from playing it?
Kidding - hopefully! I think they're smart enough to recognize the marketing and publicity value, of course...unlike others who don't seem to get that our ability to play it here can actually increase an addressable market and desire to play it for real.
Granted, the most elite, private courses like Augusta don't care, and I understand the intellectual property/licensing balance and perspective as well...
Anyway, I imagine it's moot on this one - great work...
